Magic Online Avacyn Restored Prerelease Events

Wizards of the CoastTuesday, May 01, 2012

The archangel Avacyn has returned! A bright, fiery dawn banishes Innistrad's shadows. Humanity takes up arms and drives back the creatures of the night. With flights of angels overhead, the righteous band together and wield holy light and miraculous magic to restore the balance of their world.

Avacyn Restored will be on sale in the Magic Online store on May 21, but the Avacyn Restored prerelease lets you experience the third set in the Innistrad block early. The Avacyn Restored prerelease will feature two separate parts: Swiss Sealed Flights and 8-Player Swiss Draft Queues. See below for more information. Please note, while Avacyn Restored is part of the Innistrad block, it is a large set, which means booster draft and sealed deck tournaments will use ONLY Avacyn Restored booster packs.

Note: All times below are in Pacific Daylight Time (UTC -7 hours).
